Suggested Use

Dapsone 100mg Tablets are indicated for:

  1. Leprosy (Hansen’s disease) – effective as part of multidrug therapy to treat and control the spread of leprosy bacteria.
  2. Dermatitis herpetiformis – used to relieve symptoms of this chronic blistering skin condition associated with gluten sensitivity.
  3. Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) – It is sometimes used as an off-label prophylactic for PCP in immunocompromised patients, such as those with HIV.

The dosage will be tailored to fit the patient’s unique situation. Following the doctor’s instructions.

Warning

  • Dapsone can cause severe hypersensitivity reactions, including DRESS syndrome (Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms). Discontinue use and seek medical attention if severe rash, fever, or facial swelling occurs.
  • It may cause anaemia, particularly hemolytic anaemia in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency. Routine blood tests are advised during treatment.
  • Dapsone may impact liver and kidney function. Patients with liver or kidney problems should be closely monitored.
  • Caution in Methemoglobinemia: Dapsone can increase methemoglobin levels, leading to methemoglobinemia. Patients should report signs such as cyanosis or unusual fatigue.
  • Dapsone should be used with caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as it can cross the placenta and is excreted in breast milk.
